Profile:Were West Indian fast bowlers still terrorising opponents with an unquenchable zeal, Pedro Collins would not be an international cricketer. The reign of the fast-and-nasty is over though, and Collins could just head a new generation of fast-medium bowlers.A tall left-armer, Collins shapes the ball away from the right-hander. He is not lightning quick, but can be dangerous when he pitches the ball up. With the bat, Collins is limited, but could, with work, turn himself into a decent night-watchman. Collins made his Test debut against Australia in 1999, picking up Steve Waugh in an impressive start. He would dismiss Waugh twice more in the series, and had emerged as a solid performer. After a disappointing start to his ODI career, Collins spent time in the wilderness. He continued bowling well for Barbados, with a higher arm and better-looking action, and was selected for West Indies 2001 tour to Southern Africa. He failed to make a huge impact, but was retained for the trip to Sri Lanka. He bowled with accuracy in the one-day series in Sri Lanka, and picked up four wickets in the second Test. Without spectacular figures, Collins was retained for the recent series with India. Again, he didn't dominate, but swung the ball away from Sachin Tendulkar, sending the little master back to the pavilion three times in the series. Collins found some real success against New Zealand, returning figures of 6/76 in the first Test. The 26-year-old Bajan then destroyed New Zealand's middle order with 3/33 to help his side to a one-day victory. This is still a fledgling Test career, but the determination which Collins shows is impressive. He is a genuine swinger of the ball, and will always trouble the right-hander outside off-stump. It is impressive to note that the majority of his victims thus far are top order batsmen and that he does not simply mop up the tail. (Sean Beynon, Copyright CricInfo September 2002)
